20110183653 | ERROR CORRECTION FOR DTMF CORRUPTION ON UPLINK - Aspects relate to provision of enterprise call capabilities to mobile devices. For example, a mobile device can indicate, over a data channel, that a PBX is to make a call on its behalf to a called party. The PBX can call back the mobile device, call the called party, and bridge those call legs to establish the call. The mobile device can employ mechanisms that a particular incoming call is made by the PBX. These mechanisms can include using ANI information, sending, and receiving audible verification codes over the voice channel established after answering the incoming call. The verification codes can be selected based different behaviors of the mobile devices. | 07-28-2011 |
20110183665 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE SYNCHRONIZED TRANSMISSION OF TONE SEQUENCES - A computer implemented method for transmitting dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) tones is disclosed. The method includes sending an indication to a mobile device to start a cyclic ring tone including ring and pause periods. The delay incurred to send a DTMF tone to the mobile device is estimated. The server schedules the transmission of the DTMF tone to be received at the mobile device during a pause period of the cyclic ring tone and the DTMF tone is sent as scheduled. | 07-28-2011 |
20110263223 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF SYNCHRONIZING RING TONE CYCLES AND DELIVERY OF DTMF TONES - Mobile devices use a PBX and application servers associated with the PBX to access voice services. Some mobile devices can support simultaneous data and voice channels, with the PBX and application server respectively. Where a data channel is unavailable, a control and status updating mechanism is needed. One approach is to signal over the voice channel with DTMF tones. DTMF tones should be timed to cause the tones to arrive at the mobile device during a pause period of a ring cycle. However, it also is desirable to avoid unnaturally long silence periods or other pauses during system usage. Aspects relate to enhancing a user experience in these situations and successful transmission/reception of control and status information over a voice channel using DTMF tones. | 10-27-2011 |
20110275352 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF TIMING DTMF TONES FOR TELEPHONY CONTROL - Control and status information between a mobile device and another device can be signaled over a voice channel using DTMF tones, e.g., a pre-defined sequence of DTMF tones can signal a desired message (more generally, a feature code). Tones sent are separated from each other by a time gap (T | 11-10-2011 |

20120259986 | SYSTEM AND METHOD TO PRESERVE DIALOGS IN CLUSTERED ENVIRONMENTS IN CASE OF NODE FAILURE - The present disclosure provides a system and method to preserve dialogs in clustered environments in case of node failure. In accordance with one embodiment, there is provided a method for performing a transaction call between an originating device and a terminating device, comprising: receiving, by a originating proxy server in a first cluster, a SIP message from the originating device over a first connection; and sending, by the originating proxy server, the SIP message to a routing proxy server in a second server cluster. | 10-11-2012 |
20120259991 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SIP USER AGENT IDENTIFICATION AND EFFICIENT BINDING - The present disclosure provides a system and method for Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) user agent identification and efficient binding. In accordance with one example embodiment, there is provided a method for use on a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) registration server for registering user agents, comprising: receiving a REGISTER message which includes a binding key; determining whether a prior binding associated with the binding key exists in a registration repository; and creating a new binding associated with the binding key and adding the new binding to the registration repository when no prior binding associated with the binding key exists in the registration repository. | 10-11-2012 |
20120260310 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR APPLYING AUTHENTICATION AND SECURITY POLICIES IN A SIP ENVIRONMENT - The present disclosure provides a system and method for applying authentication and security policies in a SIP environment. In accordance with one embodiment, there is provided a method for use on a SIP server, comprising: establishing a persistent connection with a user agent (UA); initiating an idle connection timeout countdown timer; performing authentication of an initial REGISTER request using a first level of authentication; and terminating the persistent connection when the initial REGISTER request is not validated before expiry of the idle connection timeout countdown timer. | 10-11-2012 |

20140179278 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF VOICE CALL SETUP INVOLVING MOBILE DEVICES - A mobile device can send a notification to place a call using a PBX (e.g., using SIP signaling) or receive a notification of call availability for the mobile device at the PBX. An authentication token is provided over a data channel for use in authenticating the mobile device when calling the PBX on a voice channel. However, when the mobile device calls the PBX (e.g., on a DNIS number, where ANI information is made available to an application server), if ANI information is found to correspond to the mobile device, the PBX can send tone(s) indicating that the mobile device can respond with an abbreviated validation tone, rather than the entirety of the authentication token. If the ANI information is not obtained or not matched, then a different tone(s) is sent, indicating to provide the authentication token. If the authentication token provided does not match or if the mobile device does not respond, the voice channel is not set up. | 06-26-2014 |
